BOM buyer could not obtain mortgage!! Rare opportunity to own a 1.8-acre waterfront hobby farm in the heart of historic Crosswicks. This beautifully rebuilt 2-bedroom, 1-bath home (2021) offers 450 feet of deeded frontage on Crosswicks Creek and a unique blend of privacy, natural beauty, and income potential. Perfectly located halfway between NYC and Philadelphia, with train access nearby in Bordentown, this home works equally well as a full-time residence or a profitable short-term rental. Outdoor features include a perimeter trail system, two firepits (one by the creek, one in the main yard), ample wildlife, hunting and fishing opportunities, and a fenced dog area with a hand-built duck coop. Enjoy morning walks, nature watching, or simply relaxing in your secluded backyard retreat. Inside, the home offers modern efficiency with four smart split heating/cooling units, double-pane windows, and a stylish kitchen with a gas range and updated appliances. The living room and master bedroom both offer serene views of the forest and creek. The upstairs bathroom is fully tiled and includes laundry. A bright second bedroom and cozy reading nooks complete the interior. The basement is approximately 5 ft tall with a sealed enamel floor. All this just 20 minutes to Six Flags, 45 minutes to the shore, and near charming NJ downtowns. A true hidden gem with the best of both country living and commuter convenience.
